15psi - 780-800whp

Not as of yet, the wintery weather we have been experiencing here, has interfered with the delivery of the atlas controller. And that is the last piece to the puzzle before dyno time. Hopefully some point this week!

Just an update if anyone still cares lol, it made 686 wheel with the new pulley and new tune on 93...everything is installed and ready for E85 dyno and tune.....tuner pulled the car out along with 4 other TRX trucks and another camaro and we had a huge hail storm come through the area.....long story short we're currently in a holding pattern....awaiting assessor to arrive sometime today, as well as insurance claim to get squared away before we continue tune on E85....I went and looked at it yestreday, it isn't good....not bad enough to total but when something like that happens to your baby you're never happy.....just my luck i guess.....will keep everyone updated.

Really sorry to hear. One of mine got beat up pretty good last year and the body shop did the paintless on much of it plus a new hood and it looks perfect now. Best of luck with your baby glad it wasn't totaled!

That's exactly the direction their going...PDR is actually an art form lol from what I've been watching on the interweb....the hood is def a replace....also the car is wrapped so that is totally destroyed as well which is frustrating.

JESUS... VERY sorry for this. Fingers crossed it works out quick. At least it's not crash damage or anything.

It will all work out.

Awwww, maaaaan!

This really blows. I'm sorry to hear it happened. I guess first-world problems and all that, but it still sucks.

Best wishes for a quick process so you can enjoy it soon.

Ok for those that are still following my final numbers to the wheels with the Atlas tuned is 786HP on full E at 14psi of boost. A little back story, I have the stock headers and cats, (not for long) and the mamo throttle body and regular rotofab. Next round of modifications will be Kooks headers with green cats and a couple of different pulleys. That SHOULD net me around 900 wheel on full E. And than I think I'm done. I don't want to go cam, although they do sound good, I still road race this car so having it tolerable on the race track is still a must. I know you can road race with a CAM but if I know me I'd want to go big CAM lol....so that's where the car sits now.

GREAT numbers! I think that's about what DSX's car put down with a similar combo'.

I just watched a new video from LMP where they pushed a Z06 to 20-psi and well past 800 with a few more bolt-ons, so you're well on your way

Very solid! Glad it's all finished up. The intake side is definitely limiting at this point. A 103 and bigger intake would be on my list before additional pulleys, personally. Good call on the headers, too.

Hey, how did the hail damage repair turn out? Did they do a good job with it?

Hail damage turned out good. I'm very particular about my cars so a full paint correction and ceramic coating is in it's future once I can convince myself to start it haha.

Back to the next steps, you think it would behove me to do the 103 throttle body and snout BEFORE the exhaust and new pulleys? Seems like adding a 103mm at a later time would be easier to install myself and have a remote tune done as opposed to the full exhaust and pulleys etc. The shop said (and I fully trust them) that with my current setup i'm basically creating "fake boost" without having the exhaust and cats to help the air move, and upgrading the pulleys will get us to the boost we want. Thoughts?

Very glad to hear the repair turned out to your liking!

Regarding the build, I think both the exhaust and the inlet are the restrictions. Right now, you are definitely pushing a ton of exhaust through a restriction. BUT you are also sucking through a straw trying to feed the big blower.

At 700rwhp+ the 103 and BG start to become very beneficial. I'd say even more so than the headers. Especially if you increase the blower speed with pulley changes. The 2650 will be trying really hard to bring in air through a small opening.

So yes, the headers will help get rid of outlet restriction, but you also have an inlet restriction, particularly if you increase blower speed.
